Food, Family and a bit of relaxation....that is the description of our Thanksgiving. :)
My husband's mom, sister, her boyfriend and their new baby (ok, he's 5mths now) are in town for a few days and we had them over for supper. It was a nice time and very relaxing. I LOVE to cook and had plenty of people to eat it so it was nice.
My sister, daughter and I went to the Christmas Walk again this year. It was rather sad for us. My sister & I have been doing this on Black Friday for so many years. This year most of the little shops we like are closed, our "regular" restaurant was sold & is now a "coffee shop" and there was a serious lack of Christmas spirit in most of the shops. The place was well decorated and there were a few shops that really went out of the way to make it special though. We're debating whether or not to try again next year...guess we'll have to see how the economy is.
Sunday is MY day and I'm in the Christmas mood so I'm putting up our decorations and the tree!! Sorry honey but E. Scrooge is no longer invited so if you want to hang out with him...hit the "man cave". :)

Can I get the recipe....
WOW! What an awesome site! I found this site on a group I visit. They are great. They come up with recipes and a shopping list for you. We've tried several of the recipes already and even my picky family likes them. Even if you only use some of the recipes each week it's free and well worth it.
They're doing another give-a-way this week for the book "250 Home Preserving Favorites" and I REALLY want a copy of this book. It full of recipes for jams, jellies, and preserves. I've never done them before and these recipes are supposed to be fool-proof. If I win...I'll make the "Spiced Mango Jam" first, then "Lemon Blueberry Marmalade" and then "Orange Earl Grey Marmalade". I'll let you know if they are preserving-challenged proof when I'm done.
You can enter the give-a-way at their site but you have to subscribe to the newsletter first. Easy-peasy right! Heck it's for a free cookbook...besides fabric what could be better?! (LOL, I know...I'm a bit "off" sometimes...just call me old-fashioned and look away.)
Hop over to Can I Get the Recipe? for some fun new ideas and shake up dinner next week. :)
